I did create a post..asking if anyone had started work on this...
Got not one reply...
Seeing as i have them both.. x1 and HD..
So.. i thought.... Lets have a go....
Proof of concept only.....not a distributable version.
Sony Xperia X1 Panels.....Running on Touch HD
It's got a long way to go and lots of work needed... but it should
end up a very good addition to the Touch HD, and once done, work can commence on porting to different resolutions.
I like the look of this front end alot better than the TF3D
What do you guys reckon?
THERE IS NO CAB. ASK AT YOUR PERIL!
Anyone asking for it, will be flogged, tarred, feathered and called a leper!

There has been advances but very slow ones, It has been very "finiky" getting those "right changes" to commit more "stability changes"
It is because the HD was never meant to host Panels, and thus, is causing me a real pain in the backside! I'm currently looking at different roms, and versions of software, to try alternate file versions, to see if a combination is what is needed. Once this part is done, it should address a great deal of issues. Upto about 3 Hard resets a night, I think i should have a special button to do it on the back!

It has been brought to my attention, there is a Cab available on another thread, but i have no input on this.
It is at the same point i was about a month ago.
It is a simple copy and paste from a X1 and is unstable.
I did not put out a version like this, as It requires your phone be reset after running panels after about 5 times, and i am aware why.
I thought It would be unfair to users to give them something that would pretty much trash the stability of the HD.
You know where it is if you do not care about this, and just want to install it.
I will not be putting out my version till i know atleast it will not trash your phone. That would subtract from the work done, and after some of us spending 500GBP+ the last thing needed is a paperweight.

With the help of 'Keni'.. a new junior member... He has helped move us along also.. and produced...
The Panel icon on the titlebar.
It does need work.. and for it to function i need help again from nelshh
But he has no-doubt spent alot of time.. and got some code done.
I have to commend his effort.. and now wish to happily add him to the contributer list along with nelshh
See post 304 for pic and wmv
Thanks keni !
I am still working on te next alpha build and am struggling with the concurrence manager.
After using panels chooser anywhere from 5-10 times.. it egg timers out.. and batt out is the only recourse.
The testing on one of my HD's is now at a point.. it is a daily reset at minimum,,, but i'll carry on.
27/11/08
This has been such a painful last few days.... I have had unknown numbers of hard-resets trying to get the failing panels to operate properly.
2 developers are currently trying to help create the panel icon (see post 104) If anyone else can help aaswell...????
At the moment.. it's still doign my head in... but i am still working on this..
Those of you who have made donations.. and the kind words.. I am very grateful... and the bottle of White Zinfandel has been bought.. and shall be devoured tomorrow by her.!
I know alot of you guys are awaiting on me.. and that's why i haven't stopped.
Thanks guys... (and their mrs's for not divorcing them!)
PS.. my wife also wants a developer to create a couple of buttons on her omnia.
One button = Husband puts down phones!
Two Button = Husband does not grunt when asked question by her.. cos he is engrossed in panels!
Three button = Husband does not buy another new phone ever ever ever again!
I told her.. this is impossible... but she still asked me to find out.
23/11/08
The Alpha Cab has gone out to 5 selected testers.
This is a test version.. with many bugs.
So far.. this is the feedback
It installs.
It launches
It works
However.
Media panel & Facebook panel don't work on Alpha 0.02
Panel launcher Working. 3 testers had issues with relaunches after 5 times.It then becomes unresponsive
TF3d / Coloured Xperia / Silver Xperia / Radio Panel / SPB Panel / Google panel and Fish Panel all operate.
Animation works well on all.
I will work to address some of these.. and release a second alpha cab only to the Alpha testers.
19/11/2008
Alpha Build 0.02.

15/11/2008
Big jump made by all work done by nelshh (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=916337)
He has developed a working prototype that will call the panel manager tab.
So.. AS OF TODAY.. the 15th.. thanks to nelshh, we have something that now functions..and needs finalising and wrapping.
I will contact people to see if you can also help.
But please give nelshh a big thanks on this thread... for all his work in his project Xperiatweak (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=440035)... and also his work on here.
Thanks nelshh

hi,
Am sure lot of guys here would be interested to do the testing & developement for you.Can you post here, how you started with porting panels onto HD? I searched for the panels cab and cant find anything on this xda ? Would be useful if you could give some more information,
regards
vijayvasa
works fine on HD?
Is much slower than xperia?
The panels looks good on HD as comapre to X1 because of the large screen. Do share the cabs and procedure to do that once you are done.
Thanks in advance.
Hope the panels work faster than on the X1 otherwise they are useless. On the X1 they are way to slow to work productively with them.
But the chance that they work faster on the HD are small, right? Cos the hardware of both the X1 and the HD are about the same, are they?
Also looking forward for a cab file for testing them by myself.

Hello Harvsingh,
I would be very interested in helping you, but I have absolutely no experience in programing (besides my old ti-83plus). Do you think I could help you somehow? Can you tell me what I should do? I don't want to loose this project only because nobody here wants to help... So, if I can do something, I'll try to do it!! I think I'll get my HD this week, than I can try everything and if you tell me, also other things. I really want to help... Greez, cad^^
Wow HarvSingh !
Good for you! Looks like a good job on the face of it!
Great to see this post!
Have seen someone porting TouchFlo3D to Xperia, and was wondering whether anyone would port the Xperia Panel over to Touch HD.
Well, hopefully you would share the cab file for the rest of us to do a test on it, and more people to come and improve on it.
Do you manage to get the gold fish to work too? Guess it would really be nice to let the gold fish swim on the bigger screen.

Thanks for the words.....
Yes.. all panels work.. but not after a reboot..
Fish are very happy in the bigger tank.. and stroking the screen has the same affect on scared little fishy
It's now a case in finding out what is causing it to flap itself on a reboot.
On a hard reset... going through my way to wedge the panels in.. works... then on reboot... i cannot start it.
Also.. after selecting the panel you want.. i'm still to find the call it makes from the X1 panel button to call up panel chooser with the tiled view.. so. when you've selected the panel.. you cannot re-choose another.
but.. this is my first day in doing this.. and i guess i'll plod along.. till i find it.. or just think screw it.

Have you definitely told it to not load the TouchFlo3D? That may interfere with it after a reboot.

Same thing here. Would like to help with it also I really dont have much experience with WM at all. But I will help where I can cos this project has to develop to a fine product

Well to be honest, the Panels are more a marketing USP than anything else. While they are convenient, I have no issue or propensity against going into each thing separately as per normal.
But if you could get it working fully, it would be great. SonyEricsson wouldn't be too happy about it though I think !
For me, this is an extremely exieting project, because I only hoped/feared that there'll be some developers, bringing some great programs for the panels and nobody else could use them. Like spb-panel, I like it really a lot from what I've seen in videos. So, than I could have the best of both worlds, on a biiig screen^^ please, work on, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's very, very interestet in this project!!! And I want to congratulate you already for the work you've done until now!! Its amazing!!! Go on, finish it I wish you good, good luck and if you need any help I could do, I give you my word that I'll try to do my best!! Many greez, cad^^
Hi all
Video showing it running on a Touch Hd.. for the conspiracy theorists.
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-Jo0ZhxOi8s
I don't get the video. Could you explain what's going on ?
I didn't have the audio on, if there was any, but it's just showing that it's possible. That's the first time I've seen it in action, and I'll admit it may be a little slow, but it looks better than the TouchFlo3D... I'd definitely install it.

No-one wants to hear me talk...
So. i just quicky launched it up.. and ran through..
All buttons work.. i was trying to juggle a TYTN II... look at the phone and tytn.. and press buttons... so .. i may not have pressed buttons properly..
But.. trust me.. they all work... and as quick/quicker than on the Sony X1.def not slower.

lol, nothing personal just my wife's asleep next to me, unwell.
But good news on the speed. I do hope you're able to make an easy to use cab file of it. No hurry as far as I'm concerned though. Not getting an HD yet. But definitely the first thing I'll download for it!
Hello
I`m new here and hope this is the right place to post. I have also looked around the forum without finding answer to my question.
Does anyone know if there is some wifi software for sniffing keys?
Something like WiFiFoFum and then yyou choose wich network to sniff, would be a great feature.
Tried something called retina but i couldn`t instal it on my Blackstone
happy for answers and sorry if this is posted on the wrong place
zliverfox
AFAIK There is no such software for WM.
However ... there is a slight chance that one day this great community here will manage to lead us to install Linux on Touch HD ... and then there might be such a possibility. see here http://www.saurik.com/id/10
... Nothing can stop me dreaming ...
stealing wifi...and passwords of networks

hi all
for what i know everyone says manilla 2.5 isnt possible in landscapemode
i dont know how but ive managed to get it in landscape
it aint perfect because the big icos are misplaced and my background is to short
but i can use landscape made
because i have it possible so the files are somewhere on my phone to make it happen or is this a known thing?
gonna make some pics of how it looks and in the meantime please share youre thought
edit:screens added
Okey dokey.... Mister, this is what we all have :| So, what are you trying to say? you used a prog to landscape your screen then took pics of it to show them to everyone that happened to have the EXACT same thing? Let me tell you, whichsoever way you rotate your device, what you get is the "portrait" Manila! Its not MIS-placed, dearie, it is NOT there!
Advice: Try to change the thread title to "Rally: Let's Port Manila 2.5 to Landscape"
Cheers

man, you are a MEGA terror! I don't want to make a mistake and respond "harshly" as wez puts it...SO, help me out here:
1. Are you telling me that those extraordinary programers (who bust their brains out to port the coolest ever, state of the art, cutting-edge software and give to us for nothing other than a simple thank you) have no life?
2. Or, are you telling me that although you can port Manila 2.5 to landscape, you have a life and therefore you won't do it?
By the way, either answer implies the other... so, good Sir, really, you are an ungrateful jerk and an idiot, who deserves no attention whatsoever...
OUT>>>
One more thing, you have posted 480 times in 7 months period, and you're telling me you have a LIFE? Mate, wake up, you got no life!

i think this thread provides a glimmer of hope for us =]...not to mention possibly the poor people over with the Rhodium who would love to use landscape
this thread would be useful if someone knew which manilla files handled the landscape mode...i'm sure miniterror would be happy to post those files if he knew which ones!

youre comments show me youre real hillbilly
maybe i have a job where i constantly need a computer arround me and therefore have the abbility to check xda a few times a day to reply to questions of other users and ask questions off things i dont get
as off the title english isnt my motherlanguage and therefore it maybe whas a little wrong and hopefull for some(my apoligies for that)
but that still doesnt have to lead to those hillbilly comments
as of the files i dont know wich files are for rotation but whas trying to get some wisdom in it and that whisdom could maybe lead to a thing that we can use mannila in landscape
it could have been usefullfor my rhodium to as i own a blackstone and a rhodium and gave my girlfriend my iolite
as for all the great developers here i dont say they dont have life thats how you interpretent it
i have respect for all these people as i know there are more of youre kind with those hillbilly comments and still they do there thing they like to do for all the others here ho can reply normally

nice one dude... am i missing sumthing here, im assuming that there is a file to install that u will put on here or there is a file that is already on my device
sorry bringing it up again
but it´s been days i´ve been look for some ROM or cab with the manila 2.5 FULLY landscaped
all i´ve found is the default music and photo tabs tilting ones
but i´d like to have all the screens rotated
seen it on older models as touch pro and even on touch hd on some videos
using gsen or gyrator on that roms only gave me a black screen on 2.5 and a useless almost half screen with a lot of glitches on 2.1
guess full landscape support it's possible since touch pro 2 is out some time now and hd2 has been announced
so, guys... is there a way to get manila 2.5 fully landscape mode?
thanks in advance
[]s
Iv done my best to search for this but only get bogged down by dozens of other posts.
In short will Manilla ever be updated to work for the landscape mode? Or is hacking it to be as wide as possible the best we can hope for? Only reason being i adore my phone, but god forbid someone opens it up on anything other then opera/music.
Cheers guys
anybody at all?
I'm thinking until HTC comes out with a HD2 variant with a hardware keyboard, we won't have TF3D 2.5 landscape working properly.
But consider this: It's a miracle that the developers here ported it to our device in the first place..
Thank you for your reply & I couldnt agree more!
making one of the windowsmobile7series theme/app for the windowsmobile standard device need help fixing it
Can you be a bit more specific? Maybe more people will respond if you provide more info on what exactly the dev. needs to do.
Thank You.

do you know the creation raxbot had made for windowsmobile profeessional .The thing he mad was wm7series but its for windowsmobile pro but i decided to make a nonversion for wm7series
